It turns out that entitled customers are willing to go far for their extra ketchup! This Karen had the audacity to throw two ridiculous tantrums at the same McDonald's establishment within a short amount of time, as if the people who witnessed the first outburst would have suddenly forgotten. The result? She ended up in the back of a police car and wound up getting into way more trouble than she anticipated.

The first temper tantrum involved not having the right amount of change to pay for her food. This McDonald's was in a European country where euros were only accepted in bills and not coins. This was apparently standard throughout the country, but the Karen customer decided to take an entire country's policy out on an unfortunate employee. Her second outburst involved not getting the extra ketchup she asked for. In the process, she ended up accusing an employee of outlandish behavior simply because he misheard her. And, of course, she made a scene and held up the line.

    This happened circa 2016-17 I'm from a European country where we don't use EUR. People can still use that currency in bigger stores, but only with euros and not cents.

    She asks if she could pay with euro. I tell her yes, but only with euro, euro cent is not accepted. She starts counting the euro, it was not enough for the meal and she started counting cents. I tell her, unfortunately only euro is accepted

    Before stepping out of the store, she turned around and screamed theatrically that she decided she won't report to the local authority, but to the CEO of McDonald's in the USA Headquarters. Then left triumphantly
